{"product_id":"9780627043475","title":"Economics for South African students (Seventh Edition)","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis textbook provides a comprehensive introduction to economics, set against a contemporary South African background. Like previous editions, the easy style and many practical examples make this publication extremely accessible. The book covers all the material usually prescribed for introductory courses, and it lays a solid foundation for intermediate and advanced studies in economics. Students and practitioners will most likely continue to use this textbook throughout their studies and professional career.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePractical examples in economics are crucial because they link theory and real-world experience. The examples provided in this book allow students to understand how the theory relates to economic behaviour. As in the sixth edition, a number of experts contributed short pieces under the collective title In the real world. We trust that these examples and case studies will be put to good use by lecturers (eg in discussion classes) while also providing students with more practical material to enhance their coursework.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSome of the topics covered by the In the real world pieces include:\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e#Fees must fall … to zero?
